Marine Weather HF Voice Broadcast for the Gulf of America

Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average
height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be
more than twice the significant wave height.

.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extending from the Straits of Florida
to the just northwest of western Cuba and to near the northwest
part of the Yucatan Peninsula and to the eastern Bay of Campeche
will push into the northwestern Caribbean Fri. A Gale Warning
remains in effect through this evening for waters off Veracruz.
These winds will continue to produce rough to very rough seas,
peaking to around 18 ft today off Veracruz. Winds and seas will
diminish during the weekend. A trough is expected to develop
from the frontal remnants over the west-central and SW Gulf on
Fri and linger through Sat night while weakening. Fresh to
strong winds are expected over the waters north of 22N and west
of about 89W Fri through Sat night. Low pressure may develop
along the trough on Sat near southern Texas and meander through
Sun night while weakening. Weak high pressure will settle in
over the NW Gulf early next week.
